Luffing Tower Cranes

It's common to have limited space and clearance when working with a tower crane in an urban metro area and downtown work sites. A luffing tower crane is ideal for building projects where there's not much space on either side of the site and you need to work safely. A luffing crane is able to raise or lower its jib, and that allows it to reduce the slewing radius.

A luffing crane is also a good choice for work sites where two or more cranes are working at the same time. This is because the slewing radius is highly reduced in comparison to standard tower crane types. The luffing tower crane also has a higher lifting capacity because the weight is transferred from the crane's jib much more effectively.

More and more countries are building wind turbine developments as an energy alternative. Typical luffing cranes do not have the free-standing height need to erect wind turbines. Kroll as developed their luffing jib cranes specifically to meet industry demands for higher hook heights for wind turbine erection.
